[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
[G]I wanna tell you all a story
about a Harper Valley widowed wife
Who had a [C]teenage daughter
[G]who[C] attended Harper
Val[G]ley Junior [C]High
Well, her [G]daughter came
home one afternoon
and didn't even stop to play
And she said, [C]Mama got a note here
from the [D]Harper Valley [G]PTA
Well, the note said, Mrs. Johnson,
you're wearin' your
dress is way too high
It's repor[C]ted you've been drinkin'
and a -runnin' round with
[G]men and goin' [C]wild
And we [G]don't believe you oughta be a
-bringin' up your little girl this way
And it was [C]signed by the Secretary
[D]Harper Valley [G]PTA[Eb]
Well, it [Ab]happened that the PTA
was gonna meet that very afternoon
And they were [Db]sure surprised
when Mrs. Johnson
wore her mini -skirt into the room
And as she [Ab]walked up to the blackboard
I can still recall the words she had to say
She said, I'd [Db]like to address this meeting
[Eb]off the Harper Valley [Ab]PTA
Well, there's Bobby Taylor sittin' there
and seven times he's
asked me for a date
And Mrs. [Db]Taylor sure seems
to use a lot of ice
whenever he's away
And Mr. [Ab]Baker, can you tell us why your
secretary had to leave this town?
And shouldn't [Db]Gwinnett Jones
be told to keep her
[Eb]when the shade's all pulled
completely [Ab]down?[E]
Well, Mr. [A]Harper couldn't be here,
cause he stayed too long at Kelly's bar again. And
if you'll [D]smell Shirley Thompson's breath,
you'll find she's had a little nip of gin
And then you [A]have the nerve
to tell me you think that as
a mother I'm not fit
Well, this is [D]just a little Peyton place
and [E]you're all Harper Valley hypocrites
[A]No, I wouldn't put you on
because it really did,
it happened just this way
The day my [D]momma socked it
to the [E]Harper Valley [A]PTA
The day my [D]momma socked it
to the [E]Harper Valley [A]PTA you
